Q1: How do you see your industry?
A: It's an industry that I'm in awe of.
For parents, parenting is a very important life event. When every mom and dad put their child in my hands, I take over a sense of trust and responsibility.
Every day I want to learn more professional methods, can give every child and every family more help and support, I want to share the useful knowledge and information I have learned to those who need it.
Q2: What kind of opportunity did you join the special education industry?
A: My major is preschool education, and after graduation, I entered an early education center.
I was in charge of a class of 10 children, and one day, a new kid came to our class, and because he didn't communicate with other kids very well, and occasionally disturbed and affected other kids in class, I was assigned to take him alone.
It was also the first day I took him to learn that he was a special needs child. Since there was a big difference between ordinary children and special needs, and I had never been in charge of special needs children before, I began a process of rapid and extensive learning and understanding of this field.
At the same time, through observation and interaction, I found that his tendency to avoid problems was very serious, and his emotional control was not very ideal. He would often grab his mother's sleeve or drill into his mother's arms, and I could see the mother's hard work and effort, and her wishes and expectations at that time were very simple, just hoping that the children could change a little better, and they could not be so painfully bound by emotions.
So what I could do at that time was to learn quickly, and then find a way to suit the child's personal situation, and guide him to progress in a better direction through reinforcements, and then make a little progress.
We did it together.
Later, I also tracked the situation of this child, who was already able to take group classes with other children in the early education center, and in the photo he was playing with balloons happily, grinning happily.
I can't put into words how happy I am, I just hope he can get better and better.
Q3: What do you think are the characteristics of special education?
A: If you compare with my previous early education center, the special education is actually relatively speaking:
More pressure,
Greater responsibility,
But the sense of accomplishment is also greater.
When we were in the early education center, our lesson plan and teaching content were all completed in accordance with the established procedures, but the special education was different, and the special education was very flexible. Every child is different, we spend a lot of time in the design of the curriculum every day after class, we need to develop a curriculum and progress that belongs only to and in line with the child's own situation, the ability to improve, the speed of learning, and so on. We will design and make his own teaching aids, exclusive lesson plans and rhythms that belong to him alone.
Because every parent sends the child to us, they are looking forward to the final beautiful results and results, so when we hold the child's small hand, we carry the parents' expectations and the sense of mission to help the child to work. I sometimes think that being responsible is actually a very happy thing, and how much trust and expectation are contained in this responsibility.
In the process of work, we often encounter various problems and difficulties, sometimes we will secretly hurt a little, but the speed of withdrawal is also exercised to a very fast, will be like me can not ah, must be in the past, every parent is like this, I want to do this, will spend, everything will be better, as long as I do my best.
Q4: What kind of feelings do you feel about children?
A: When I applied for the major in college, I didn't have too much extra affection for children. But after really setting foot in this industry, especially after contacting different children every day, I found that I liked them too much, except for some of the work pressure, I was really happy.
And one more thing, I think there are a lot of kids who are really smart. I once took a little friend, he is language developmental delay, mainly affected by the family language atmosphere, parents work and travel for many years, it is the elderly at home with him, usually at home to watch cartoons, there are few opportunities for language interaction, so never spoke. Before kindergarten, my family sent him to me to do language exercises.
In the process of contacting this child, I found that he was actually super smart, although he had no rules when he first came, did not understand the class routine, it was difficult to sit, and he always ran around and turned things around. But he has a strong desire to learn, and he is very active, and when I lecture or arrange some games and other interactions, he listens very carefully, and you can feel from his eyes and body language that he is a very smart little child.
Then one day, while we were playing the game, he suddenly opened his mouth and said the first word, followed by a basket of language expressions. The child's grandmother told me that he used to worry about tears because he couldn't speak, and now every day at home he thinks he talks too much and is too noisy, hahahahaha, the old man's disgust is grateful and happy.
This child has given me new feelings and feelings about the group of children, who can be smart and usually have feedback, even if it's weak. But they actually have the ability to capture your attitude, emotions, and attention, and they can amplify these emotions, turn them into their own energy, and then express them through language, growth rate, and personality.
So they are really like a mirror, and our patience, companionship and positive guidance will all become nourishment to nourish them and make us happy.
Q5: What do your friends think of your industry?
A: Most people don't understand.
The question that my relatives and friends around me often ask is: What is a special education? What are these kids like? Are they difficult to teach?
In fact, every time I hear such a question, my heart is both uncomfortable and a little anxious.
The uncomfortable point is that they don't want their children to be understood and judged in this way, they are not difficult to teach at all, sometimes it is just the wrong method, or not patient enough, many children are actually very smart, just lack of guidance. And it can be seen that many children themselves are very hardworking.
Anxiously, I sometimes find it difficult to explain my industry in a sentence or two, and even more difficult to use language to accurately describe what kind of children I come into contact with.
This is an industry that requires patience to understand and pay attention to.
Q6: When is the happiest?
A: When the children suddenly have a big improvement, or when they suddenly learn a skill, I am super happy, and the excitement can't help but run out hahaha.
And at this time, I feel that my stress and troubles will all run away on their own. Every bit of growth in the children will heal me like a good medicine in an instant, and I feel like everything I do is for this moment, and many, many "this moment".
I'm also looking forward to information from parents when they tell me what skills their children are using at home, or that they've recently gotten better at communicating with their children, that their social interactions and interactions have improved, and so on.
I look forward to growing and improving with more patience and constant reinforcement.
I also look forward to gaining more confidence and energy on this journey.
